Tom Brady and his display of emotion

The NFL GOAT came under scanner for throwing two Microsoft tablets, during the sidelines of the game, earlier in the starting phase of the NFL.

TB12 and Buccaneers get relief

The future HOF-er and Buccaneers suffered a challenging two-week phase in the NFL. They suffered losses against the Packers and Chiefs. TB12’s running game and the ability to win matches also came in as a question, with fans expressing disappointment. 

The Bucs did not play their best game against the Falcons. However, it broke the two-game losing streak, and hence it came in as a positive sign for the star QB. The Buccaneers will hope for a better show and a similar result, as they lock horns with the Steelers on Sunday. The Steelers are coming in after a humiliating 38-3 loss against the Bills. Todd Bowles and his men will look to make it count.
